Convection of dried reagents creates spatially heterogeneous colorimetric signals in µPADs. Recently, our group demonstrated that uniform rehydration of dried reagents can be accomplished by stacking a high wicking rate membrane on top of a low wicking rate membrane containing dried reagents 1. In this work, we present a detailed study of how membrane combinations affect rehydration patterns in paper stacks and how that, in turn, affects the limit of detection in µPADs utilizing stacked membranes.
